ANSWER
In Leo Tolstoy's "How Much Land Does a Man Need?", one way in which Pahom changes upon becoming a landowner is that his greed leads him to become blind to the needs and innocence of others.
At the start of the story, as a peasant who rents land from others, Pahom feels oppressed by the steward a lady landowner of the village has hired. The steward frequently accuses the peasants of trespassing on the lady's land and has them fined. Upon buying his own 40 acres from the lady, he at first overlooks peasant trespassers because he knows how burdensome the peasant life can be, as we see when the narrator explains, "He knew it was the peasants' want of land, and no evil intent on their part, that caused the trouble." Because he is understanding due to his own oppression, he turns the peasants off his land and forgives them each time. However, eventually, his greed for his own land overrides any feelings of compassion he has.
